All Hardware and Installation Instructions Included!
However you define adventure -- whether it's climbing onto the back of a mountain bike, hunting from the top of a tree stand or camping with the family a long way from nowhere -- CURT class 1 hitches provide a light-duty towing receiver to help you Bring It. Each is made to fit a specific vehicle, providing easier installation, a better fit and optimal towing capacity. Custom class 1 trailer hitches are available for a variety of smaller vehicle types, including the compact car, crossover, minivan and small SUV. This particular class 1 hitch is designed to be a custom hitch for certain years of the Kia Soul (to verify vehicle compatibility, see the CURT application guide at curtmfg.com). Tested in accordance with SAE J684, it offers a weight carrying capacity of 2,000 lbs. GTW and 200 lbs. TW. It is equipped with 1-1/4" receiver tube opening to accept a ball mount shank or other hitch mount. This class 1 hitch also comes with all necessary mounting hardware. With its lightweight design and smaller receiver tube size, a class 1 hitch is especially useful for adding cargo space with a hitch-mounted bike rack or cargo carrier. They can also typically be used to tow small trailers such as a utility trailer, kayak trailer or teardrop camper (never exceed the lowest weight capacity of any towing component; i.e. the vehicle, hitch, trailer, etc). Though CURT class 1 trailer hitches are only intended for light-duty towing, we apply the same principles of quality as we do to the rest of our rear mount hitches. Each class 1 hitch is made with hands-on engineering, high-strength steel and precise welding. We use a co-cured finish of liquid A-coat, inside and out, and durable black powder coat to provide a lasting defense against rust, chips and UV rays.
If your vehicle is not equipped with wiring for towing a trailer, CURT custom wiring is the ideal solution. A custom wiring harness -- also called a T-connector -- is a simple, plug-and-play electrical device that plugs into your automotive electric system and provides a standard, universal trailer wiring connection. This is done using two or more vehicle-specific, OEM-compatible connectors to plug into the taillight assembly, eliminating the need for cutting, splicing and soldering during installation. Custom wiring harnesses are made vehicle-specific, and while they are not available for all vehicles, they do offer one of the fastest, easiest and most secure ways to wire a vehicle for towing. This particular plug-in harness provides a 4-way flat connector socket and is designed to be a custom wiring harness to fit certain years of the Kia Rondo and Soul (to verify your vehicle compatibility, see application info). It comes with all necessary wiring components to establish a reliable trailer wiring connection, as well as a dust cover to keep the connector clean when not in use. You have a picture in mind of your next destination -- maybe it's the boat landing at your favorite fishing spot, maybe it's a campsite that overlooks one of nature's masterpieces, or maybe it's the next big jobsite. However, turning that picture into a reality takes more than just daydreaming. It takes a solid connection and the right amount of power. CURT custom wiring is made with some of the most sophisticated technology in the industry and is designed to install with ease, giving you a long-lasting electrical connection for your towing hitch setup.

Yes, part number 11419 is designed for the 2016 Kia Soul Hatchback. This is a weight-carrying receiver hitch with a maximum trailer weight capacity of 2000 lbs and tongue weight capacity of 200 lbs. Do not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity.
The manual specifies the 11419 is designed for the 2016 Kia Soul Hatchback. Compatibility with other model years is not stated in the manual. Contact Curt Manufacturing technical support at 1-877-287-8364 to confirm fitment for other years.
The 11419 is designed for use with ball mount 45521/D-21 (no drilling required), and with Euro ball mounts 45571 (1 7/8" ball) and 45572 (2" ball). These are sold separately.
The hitch includes 6 M10x1.25 hex cap screws (HHCS), class 10.9, zinc-plated (part 10-10271) and 6 conical toothed washers, 7/16" (part 30-00163). All fasteners are torqued to 48 ft-lbs during installation.
Required tools are: Phillips screwdriver, flat blade screwdriver, 10mm and 17mm sockets, 12" extension, ratchet, and torque wrench. Safety glasses should be worn at all times during installation. Spray lubricant is recommended.
The manual does not specify whether the battery must be disconnected. Contact Curt Manufacturing technical support at 1-877-287-8364 for guidance on this step.
The manual states that two people may be required to ease installation. If you are hesitant to undertake this task on your own, contact an authorized Curt installer for additional assistance.
You must lower the exhaust system by removing the rubber exhaust hanger from the hanger rod on the passenger side. You must also remove the splash shields and wheel well liners from both rear wheel wells by removing push fasteners and screws. Optionally, you can remove the canister (3 nuts on driver side frame rail) to ease installation, but it must be carefully suspended and reattached afterward.
No, the 11419 requires no drilling. It uses existing weldnuts on the vehicle frame rails for attachment.
Trimming of the driver side wheel well liner may be required to provide clearance for the driver side plate. This is noted as a possible modification during reinstallation of the wheel well liners in step 6.
All M10 hex bolts must be torqued to 48 ft-lbs. Use a torque wrench to ensure proper fastening during step 4 of installation.
Raise the hitch into position and align the holes in the side plates with the holes in the sides of the frame rails. Secure the hitch using 7/16" conical toothed washers and M10 hex bolts into each weldnut. Torque all M10 hex bolts to 48 ft-lbs.
After securing the hitch, raise the exhaust back into position and secure it to the vehicle hanger. If you removed the canister in step 3, raise it back into position and reattach it using factory hardware. Then reinstall the splash shields and wheel well liners.
The 11419 has a maximum trailer weight capacity of 2000 lbs and tongue weight capacity of 200 lbs. However, you must never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower than the hitch rating.
All non-trailer loads (wheel-less loads) applied to the 11419 must be supported by Curt 18050 stabilizing straps. Failure to properly support non-trailer loads will void the product warranty. See the Curt catalog or visit www.curtmfg.com for further information on stabilizing straps.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure that all fasteners are tight and that all structural components are sound. This maintenance is critical to safe operation and is required to maintain warranty coverage.
The manual states you should periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure all fasteners are tight and structural components are sound, but does not specify an exact interval. Contact Curt Manufacturing technical support at 1-877-287-8364 for recommended maintenance intervals.

Yes, the Curt 56222 fits Kia Rondo models, excluding those with LED taillights. If your vehicle has LED taillights, this harness is not compatible.
Yes, the Curt 56222 fits Kia Soul models, excluding those with LED taillights. If your vehicle has LED taillights, this harness is not compatible.
No. The Curt 56222 is not compatible with LED taillight versions of the Kia Rondo or Soul. The manual explicitly excludes LED taillights from the applications list.
The Curt 56222 has two amperage ratings: Signal Circuits are rated at 3.0 amps per side, and Tail/Running Circuits are rated at 5.0 amps total. You must not exceed these ratings or your tow vehicle's lamp load rating, whichever is lower. Exceeding the product rating can cause loss of warranty, overheating and potential fire.
You will need a 10mm socket, ratchet, and Phillips screwdriver. These are the only tools listed as required for installation.
Yes. Step 2 of the installation instructions requires you to locate the vehicle battery and disconnect the negative battery terminal before proceeding with any other steps.
The vehicle wiring harness connectors are located behind the taillights. The manual refers to these positions as S3 and S4 in the Wiring Location Guide. You will access them by removing the taillight assemblies from the rear of the vehicle.
Open the rear hatch and remove the Phillips drive screws holding each taillight assembly in place. Then gently pull the taillight assemblies rearward and out, being careful not to break the alignment tabs. Behind each taillight, you will find the connectors for the taillight wiring harness.
The yellow wire T-connector is inserted between the separated taillight connectors on the driver side. It must be fully inserted with locking tabs in place to ensure proper connection.
The green wire T-connector is used on the passenger side. It is inserted between the separated taillight connectors on that side, and the green wire is also routed under the vehicle from the driver side to the passenger side, running along the backside of the rear bumper.
Drilling may be required for the ground wire installation. Step 6 instructs you to locate a suitable grounding point near the connector, such as an existing screw with nut in the vehicle's frame. If no suitable existing point is available, you must drill a 3/32" pilot hole for the provided screw. Before drilling, you must check for miscellaneous items that may be hidden behind or under any surface to avoid damage and personal injury.
Locate a suitable grounding point near the connector, such as an existing screw with nut in the vehicle's frame, or drill a 3/32" pilot hole for the provided screw. Clean the ground area of any rust, dirt and paint. Secure the white ground wire using the ring terminal and provided screw.
Mount the black converter module on a flat, clean surface behind the removed taillight or on the vehicle frame that is out of the path of spray and debris from the rear wheels and road. Use the provided double-sided tape to secure it. Failure to mount the module in a protected area can cause loss of warranty, product failure including lamp malfunction, overheating and potential fire.
Remove the fastener from the rear bumper fascia with a Phillips screwdriver. Route the T-connector end with the green wire and the 4-flat down through the opening under the taillight and rear bumper fascia. Under the vehicle, route the green wire along the backside of the rear bumper to the passenger's side and up through the opening under the taillight and rear bumper fascia on that side.
When routing wires, be careful to avoid hot pipes, heat shields, the fuel tank or any other areas that might pinch or break the wire. Also check for miscellaneous items that may be hidden behind or under any surface before drilling to avoid damage and personal injury.
Route the 4-flat wire to the center of the vehicle and secure it in a convenient, out of the way location. Use the provided cable ties to secure any loose wires.
Reinstall all items removed during installation, including the taillight assemblies and rear bumper fascia fastener. Install the provided 4-flat dust cover to help prevent corrosion. Once installed, test for proper function by using a test light or connecting a properly wired trailer.
